User-submitted Spam

Received an email today about a Norton LifeLock subscription which I have never signed up for and this was the number noted to call if I wanted to cancel.

V
Villa
User-submitted Uncertain

I don’t have the full context, but it seems related to inflation and an amount of USD$548.12, which is equivalent to AUD$548.12 due to the current exchange rate. It feels suspiciously similar to scams I’ve encountered before.

S
Shaughnessy
User-submitted Scam

I received a scam email that instructed me to call this number in order to cancel a subscription to a service called "LifeLock Premium," which I do not have.

D
Durgan
User-submitted Scam

I received an email stating that I should call this number if I have any questions regarding a payment confirmation for a nonexistent Norton subscription amounting to $469.99. This appears to be a scam targeting individuals to gain personal information or money.

B
Barrette
User-submitted Scam

I received a fake invoice via email, supposedly from Norton, which claimed that a subscription fee had been deducted from my bank account. The message instructed me to call this number if I had any questions about the invoice.

C
Calley
User-submitted Scam

I received a call regarding an "instant refund" and they tried to convince me via email. It felt very suspicious and just made me laugh at how obvious it was!

A

User-submitted Suspicious

Did he say anything? I just received a missed call from this number too but when I tried calling back it’s engaged.

Tax scam. Left a message saying that my tax file number is being suspended and I will be arrested.

Crozier
User-submitted Scam

Just received a call from this number. I pressed 1 as instructed and was transfered to a guy with Indian accent posing as Australian taxation bureau. When I pointed out that he was a scammer, we traded abuses and insults over the phone for two minutes till he hung up on me.

ATO scam.
